What I wish I knew before trying ethics without making it complicated
A few notes from my attempt:
- keep the first step visible
- remove one annoying decision
- celebrate the boring repeat
> Tiny progress is still progress.
That line sounds cheesy, but it got me through the part where ethics stopped feeling new.

The vibe here is immaculate. I keep a note about prompts for exactly this reason. A small test case would make this easier to trust.

Helpful and not preachy, which is rare. This is more useful on a tired first week than on a perfect day.

I appreciate the honest middle stage, not just the polished ending. My only addition is to make the first step visible. The boring solution is probably the reliable one here.

I found this disappointing because it skips the hardest part. I care less about the perfect answer and more about repeatability.

I was going to disagree, but your second sentence got me.

I would not call it wrong, just incomplete. I used to overcomplicate this constantly.
